Melinda Culea TELLS ALL About Her Exit from ‘The A-Team’

We pity the fool that didn’t grow up loving The A-Team, which ran on NBC for five seasons beginning in 1983. The show followed the adventures of a group of wrongly convicted and imprisoned former U.S. Army Special Forces soldiers; after escaping, the soldiers used their military expertise to help those in need, while also constantly evading capture by the military police.

The team was led by the charismatic Hannibal Smith, played by the equally charismatic George Peppard. The team also included Dirk Benedict‘s smooth-talking Faceman; eccentric pilot “Howling Mad” Murdock, portrayed by Dwight Schultz; and of course, the tough and loyal B.A. Baracus, brought to life by the toughest actor of them all, Mr. T.  With every mission, they faced dangerous adversaries, showcased incredible teamwork, and always found a way to escape their pursuers.
